Smartphone Digital Audio Adapter for Airplanes

Turn your Smartphone or Tablet (iPhone, iPad, Android, Windows Phone, etc.) into a Cockpit
Voice Recorder! Just plug the 3.5 mm (4 conductor) plug into the headset
jack on your Smartphone and your standard aviation headset into the adapter and
you'll be able to record audio through your aviation headset.
Your Smartphone will be able to record all transmissions through the Intercom
systems including in-cabin and ATC transmissions. Great for CFI's and Students to review radio communication skills after the flight! Or, use the video recorder in your Smartphone to video tape your flight and record the audio from the intercom as well!

Record all intercom transmissions to any Smartphone with a 3.5mm headset
jack

Much more than i expected by Nelson from Dar es salaam Ilala Tanzania Review:
Does a great job excluding out the engine noises and records high quality sound with great clarity. It's very flexible and can stretch out to different positions regardless of camera position. Very easy to fold and pack in small spaces.

perfect for Action Cam by Zorro Volare from Oldsmar FL USA Pros: easy as could beCons: more wires to deal with n the cockpitReview: The cable worked as planned, tapping into the headphone Jack and routing the 1/8th (3.5 mm) plug to the Hero 5. Audio was clear and no more audio to video post process syncing required. Note the hero 5 requires an adapte to provide a 1/8 inch audio input.

Great Product by 182 Jockey from North Carolina Pros: Cord length and flexible mounting options.Cons: noneReview: I needed to record audio to my iPhone and this product does exactly that. The cord is long enough to route out of the way, which makes mounting options convenient and effective.

Makes playback of recorded flights sound like it did when you flew it. No background noise, etc....just clean, clear audio!

Great product by Andy from Sittingbourne Kent United Kingdom Pros: Well made, does exactly what its supposed to.Cons: Cable that attached to the phone/camera could be slightly longerReview: This adapter works well with my iPhone 6 video camera. I am a student pilot in the U.K, and I was looking for a simple solution to record video and what was going on in my headset to improve my flying and radio communications. You can hear everything clearly and the product is well made, although the connection to the phone itself could be slightly longer. Over all, well recommended.

Works on Samsung Note II by Bob in St. Louis from Fairview Heights IL USA Pros: Works great, and attenuates noise.Cons: The coiled cable limits routing of cableReview: Because of the coiled cable it would hung right in front of me in the C172 with the phone on a suction mount mid windscreen. I plugged it into the copilot jack to get it out of the way without a headset on that side and it still recorded all of the cockpit audio while attenuating engine noise. I ended up buying a TRRS Extension for a few extra bucks so I can route the cable up onto the dash. That's the only reason for losing a star.

Annoying Cord but Great Audio by Bill from Ruckersville VA USA Pros: Simple plug into iPhone or iPodCons: Re-engineer the Y-splice pleaseReview:
Plugs right into my iPhone 5 and iPod. Use the Apple Voice Memo app and start recording, very simple. Records all intercom conversation and radio traffic including your transmission out. Coiled cord and jack are stupid and poorly thought out. Just give us a simple Y-Splice off the Aviation plug and stop trying to be fancy. The coiled cord pull the Aviation plug out of the audio jack one time. I've adjusted the distance to my iPod to the cord more slack.

Not as advertised by Richard from Mount Juliet TN USA Pros: Mypilotstore Customer serviceCons: Did not work as advertisedReview: This was advertised as working with tablets. It does not work with my Asus Nexus 7 tablet as the 3.5mm is an audio out only. Upon research I found the only way it might work is with a 3.5mm female to micro USB adapter connected to the audio adapter. So I ordered one, not much $ and will try it when I get home. To mypilotstore's credit, when I called and told them about it, they agreed to extend my return time as long as they get it back in new condition and original packing.

Especially for Airline Pilots? by A Customer from Please anonymous Pros: Essential tool, as written before. Solid construction.Cons: Recording in a smartphone, with dedicated "phone version" cable, there is anyway some degradation of the headset sound (slightly more distorted). Also, it ends up being pretty "bulky", meaning that the headset's connector area will appear with a "lot of strange cables".Review:

Well, it is like an insurance, but very cheap indeed.A true story: a colleague of mine, an expat working in a major, with a local/national copilot, had a situation on board, with some aircraft damage due to severe bad weather.The extremely young copilot panicked, and the Captain ended up alone in the cockpit.At the Company's board, the copilot lied about what happened in the cockpit, and the expat requested to hear the CVR.But the Company "forgot to download it", and of course believed to the local/national, firing the expat Captain.So, here comes one essential function of this cable: a personal CVR.

Plus, it is a astonishing truth-revealing to ourself: we are sure we said something in the cockpit to the other one, but when we hear to ourself, we discover how poor was our communication instead. Then this cable allows a deep a strong professional improvement, used also as a personal feedback tool.

Works great with a GoPro 2 by Bruce Williams from Seattle, WA Pros: The cable provides a clean audio feed from aircraft intercom systems to devices such as the GoPro camera.Cons: A longer cable would allow more choices in mounting connected cameras.Review: This cable works as advertised. I plug it into a vacant headset socket and connect it to my GoPro camera. I've used it in both my Extra 300L aerobatic aircraft and A36 Bonanza. You can see videos that include cockpit audio using this cable at my YouTube channel: BruceAirFlying (http://www.youtube.com/user/BruceAirFlying).
